Excellent out of box, very good customer serviceI spent a long time looking at cameras and reviews at Amazon and elsewhere before I decided on the SX20 IS. I wanted excellent quality pictures and wide angle capability so I could take pictures of the Grand Canyon on my vacation. I didn't have much time to learn the camera before the trip, so having a camera that was easy to use--and that performed well on "auto"--was important to me. I also wanted a camera I could grow into, one that offered a lot of manual settings that I could learn how to use later on. I was impressed that the Canon SX20 IS could accomodate a polaroid filter. (A filter adaptor ring for this camera is sold by Lensmate at[...] This was also one of the few cameras available in this category with both a viewfinder and LCD screen. The heft of the camera and the size of the controls were pluses as well, since my husband and I both have large hands. I was very pleased with the pictures I took (mostly with the "auto" feature) as well as the videos. I was also impressed with Canon's customer service . I needed help on two occasions for "problems" that required more knowledge of the camera than I had when I called customer service. Both times I was able to reach a customer service representative quickly, and got the help I needed. What I wish I would have known ahead of time: a camera in the "travel camera" category would not have had the features I wanted, but it would have been a little easier to lug on hikes. Read more...

A good choice for a multi-purpose cameraPros: Although the wide range of settable options may make the operation of this camera appear complicated, the intelligent automatic setting works very well, making manual settings unnecessary in most circumstances. With automatic "point and shoot" mode, it usually takes fantastic, sharp shots. The zoom range is great, and it takes good videos, with zoom. The screen is large and bright, except in sunlight.
Cons: I guess no camera can be perfect or be all things. This one's main shortcoming is its lack of a viewfinder, which makes it a multi-purpose, not an all-purpose, camera. I made the mistake of taking mine to an air show. Even with the screen brightness on high, I could see absolutely nothing in it in the bright sun. It took excellent pictures if I happened to aim it in the right direction, but forget taking video of moving objects. I erased a lot of pictures of nothing. A few other weaknesses: Buttons are very small. There is no manual focus. It rarely happens that the camera doesn't focus better than can be done manually, but it can happen. The camera is heavy for its size. I wonder if plastic is really all that bad. It certainly would be lighter. It does have a good grip/feel, though. The wide angle does produce some "fish eye" effect, especially noticeable in panning video or with buildings in the picture. Unfortunately, there is no indication of "normal," and if you change the zoom, it returns to wide angle if you turn it off and back on. There is only a brief printed manual; the main manual is on the disk in PDF format. It would be a book if printed (177 pages). As with most all compact cameras, the flash is not powerful, but you could always use a slave flash. Except for 5-second clips with pictures, it will not record sound without video, nor can you add sound to pictures after taking them.
Overall, the cons are minor annoyances I can live with to get the beautiful pictures and movies it takes. It certainly has more capabilities than I will ever use. I may find a few other picky things as I use it, but I would for sure recommend this camera to my friends.
